Broker's Comments

Dutch steel cruiser for sale in France. Boatshed Bourgogne is pleased to offer this Smits Kotter for sale.

Built in 1996 in the Smits yard, this Kotter has a very practical layout with walk round double bed in the master cabin, separate heads and shower and doors to the saloon both port and starboard as well as aft out on the raised deck.

Great features of this boat are the bow and stern thrusters (unusual on a boat of less than 12m) and a bright, well laid out interior with quality woodwork.

Our vendors have owned the boat since 2018 and have cruised the inland waterways of France, Holland and Belgium but a recent change in circumstances mean they no longer have enough time to maintain let alone cruise her, so she is now looking for new owners to continue her adventures.

Whilst some staining from water ingress can be seen in places our vendors inform us that the boat is now dry with just trim and decoration to be improved if desired. See our photos.

For more information and appointments to view, please contact Graham, your Boatshed broker at Boatshed Bourgogne.
These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
